How to create a beautiful blog post
An image is worth a thousand words
Written by Margaret Maynard-Reid, ML engineer & artist
A few months ago, Sarah asked me a few questions about technical writing. I thought “why not just put my responses into a blog post”? So here it is, finally a post sharing my tips on “how to create a beautiful blog post”.
Since 2015 I have published over 60 stories on Medium, each with thousands of views and reads. I was invited to be a writer for many publications on Medium:
- Towards Data Science, the leading publication for data science.
- The Startup: the largest publication on Medium.
- Bootcamp: part of the UX Collective & the largest design publication on Medium.
I’ve written several tutorials for the official tensorflow.org documentation and the official TensorFlow blog which has extremely high bar for publishing. Recently I wrote a few GAN tutorials on PyImageSearch.
What makes my blog posts great?
In my opinion: writing a post is like creating a product - it’s important to establish your brand and unique style. What makes my technical tutorials stand out are the visuals.
